Halocene - BUS INVADERS Ep. 2066

OK, so this is really crazy. The last time that we were on Bus Invaders, we were in a van and it was so many of us packed into we were Lauren Babic and David Michael Frank. Now we have upgraded quite a bit. So thanks to our fans. Yes. So, yeah, we couldn't do this out of you guys. But yeah, I guess I'll just show them around. Yeah. This is the front. That's it. No. So we actually have a kitchen now. We have we're able to cook things and make things for ourselves, which is a huge upgrade for us. Microwave for ramen and reheating food. The big thing that I've been eating on this tour is cheese roll ups. So I've been taking tortillas, filling them up with cheese, and then we have this really good hot sauce. This is my favorite. Everybody on the tour has been obsessed with this. Oh, yeah. So I love to talk about the organization. So I am from Romania, PTA, ADHD, PTSD, PTSD. For me, I tore all the OCD and ADHD. And it's really difficult for me to like wake up in the morning because I wake up last and all or in the middle of the night and get out. And it's just like a wasteland. And everybody will have cups or open bottles or this or that. It drives me nuts. And you can tell it says cups only drinks, drinks, drinks, and they still can't follow the ******* instructions. It's for cups because of it. Look, these things are nice, but they do get a little bit bumpy. So when you have seven people trying to have a drink out or whatever, it's just waiting for an accident to happen. There's like two cup holders over there. And that's so we have storage back here. It's super organized, as you can see. And then drinks for cup holders up. Yes. And then I reinforced it with some gaff tape. So it ain't going nowhere. It's nice and good. I should have got four of those. But had I done that, I guarantee you it still would not be cups. Personal things in front of it. But that's. So this right here is life with other people. The Polaroid camera. I'm taking pictures for fans on tour. This is a thing that we give away to fans on our fundraising stream. So right before we leave for tour, we do a fundraising stream where we raise money for our tour and they can buy like a Polaroid album with a bunch of like collections of Polaroids, and it's really cool. So I've been taking those. This is oh, this is snacks. These are snacks and everything from our bus VIP. So since we have a bus now, we are able to bring on 10 VIPs before each show. They get a really intimate performance and everything, and we offer them like snacks and stuff as well. So this is for them. And we just had that. So and this is non-alcoholic, by the way. And so over here in the corner is our CB radio station because the the cab for driving is actually detached. So like you could you can't open this to talk to them. You can get some airflow through that. So we have our CB radios here and we have all our handles. Oh, what are you? Do not come to do not. She's dude knockers. I'm Silver Fox F boy. And our team is Purple Dragon. Our sound guy is Big Bear. But mostly we use the radios to just say, sir, this is a win. Yeah, yeah. Most of the time. That's right. Well, it's been that what's been. Oh, he's Musclebound Butters and Quentin is Trash Panda. That's our whole crew and band and all of our callsigns. What's next? Snacks. What do we got? What are we not mostly? Mostly chips, bananas, mac and cheese. So a lot of, you know, just really healthy food. Yeah, like just a full diet. Trying to watch your figure, bread and bread and sodium. Yes. So the TV right now is a little bit blocked with waters and stuff. We just threw that stuff up because it was down here. We're trying to like be clean for you guys. But really, all this ---- is usually down here and we play Super Smash. Bros on the TV with we we switch switch switch. Did you say we? Yeah, we we play the switch. We play the switch. You guys were watching Deadpool yesterday. Yeah, I watched Deadpool yesterday. We don't listen to a lot of music. I think just because like that's the job. So that's the last thing we want to do is listen to music. But if we are, we've been listening to a lot of Sleep Token. The New Day Seekers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Lots of different guys. And so down here, let's see what we got. Everybody's first. I don't know about their personal personal. It looks like we've got lots of ramen. Mine is literally just all throat coat tea. This is what I drink for a lot of throat coat tea, but not that much. So I'm going to take it all home with me. Think down here. Who's this? I'm not sure. Dr. Pepper, that's definitely Jeff or sound guy. Protein for the muscle. The dudes that like to go to the gym. This one's got like. Sorry, excuse me. Massage guns, back massagers, because we're all getting old. Ready for the fridge tour. It's really great. Let's see. We don't have much in here. We kind of just threw everything away from our fridge because something was smelling and we weren't sure what it was. So it's kind of empty right now. But we have Dr. Pepper because that is Jeff. Our sound guy's one requirement. He literally has like a Dr. Pepper hat, Dr. Pepper shirt. He is obsessed with Dr. Pepper. We do have beer, but we don't really drink very often. We're not drinkers or partiers in any sense of the word. I always ask for fruit at every stop. So they give me usually it's like a big fruit bowl. I really prefer like a nice mix of things, but it's really good to hydrate but also eat after a show. So I love having fruit nearby. Our general rider has Swiss cheese and ham. And then this is a leftover subway sandwich from earlier that I'm going to finish. And energy drinks are a big thing in this crew. I don't some of us are coffee people. Some of us are energy drink people. The freezer is also pretty empty, but I always keep ice cream on hand because I'm a freak and I have to have ice cream every single day. It's kind of my one requirement. I have a sorry, I'm gagging right now. Our generator went down for a little bit in the fridge. A lot of the food in the fridge went bad. And I have like a a fish trigger and like it smells like dead fish. So I have to leave on. OK, so I'm not too sure where this one came from, but I think it's supposed to be Quinton or Quinton's dad. I honestly can't quite tell. This one was actually handed to me while I was playing on stage and I thought it was so cool. It has my outfit from the circus music video. And then in the corner, it says for my number one singer, for my number one band, and I thought it was really sweet. So we taped it up there. Over on here, we every single VIP, we play hangman to guess the title of our upcoming album. So it is called When Love Dies. We don't know when it's coming out yet, but hopefully this year. But we'll find out. This generally is used by everybody, depending on the day. For a while, we did have a computer set up here because we were trying to get a new original song done in time for our next tour in Europe. But we have since pulled that off. And now it's kind of just more like for eating, signing posters. I sit here during our VIP. So it's for a lot of different things. And then we we bought this 30 pound kettlebell weight. But actually, we tend to stay outside of plant fitnesses. That tends to be our mode of mode of transportation, but method of how we how we get around. They have showers and we're able to work out and everything. So it's pretty sweet. We've only got kicked out like twice. So this is another one of Brad's manic ideas. He got a shoe rack really early on and we put it here. So everybody has to take off their shoes when they come in. Obviously, I'm wearing shoes now, but most of the time we don't have shoes on. It gets messy very fast and we are trying to be clean people. But we do have a vacuum that we go through with every once in a while and try and keep it clean. All right. This is where we sleep. This is Bradley's bunk. He gets the super bunk, which is also multifunctional as a couch. So if we have too many people, you can also sit here and hang out. But it is Bradley's. He gets the really big bunk. So we're all jealous. This bunk up here is not assigned to anybody, but we keep our laundry bags up here. So we have all of our laundry bags and do our laundry every once in a while. We have Gerard, our TM, Ben, our guitarist, Ethan, our merch guy. This is I'm sorry, I have to show you this. I bought this for Jeff's birthday. It's a unicorn blanket. Jeff is our sound guy. Obviously, this is my bunk. I really like to use a silk pillowcase because it's better for my hair and causes less breakage. It also sleeps a lot better. But man, it gets messy really fast in here. I also use it for mostly like storage and things. So and then Quentin, our drummer, is down on the bottom. And then in here, it's just a toilet. Nothing too interesting. Also has our keep our cleaning supplies, like our room and our vacuum back here as well. OK, so we're in kind of like the bathroom area. I would say it's more like a storage box for us. There is a shower in here, but we don't really use it. You'll see that it's full of all of my stuff. I keep it keep all my outfits in there as well as my wings because I come out in wings for Maleficent. We keep our acoustic guitars for the VIP performance in there. So it's really kind of more of a storage thing. And then over here is where I tend to get ready for. I was actually getting ready right before you guys showed up, getting ready for doing my makeup. I definitely do all my own hair and makeup, but everybody else uses this as well. So Quentin comes back here and does his makeup and everything. I think we're all pretty like theatrical people. So getting ready together is kind of like a fun thing for all of us. I just wanted to say thank you so much to all the fans that made this possible. Like, this is such a huge upgrade for us and it means the world. If you want to be able to help support us on this, come out, come watch a fundraising live stream right before our tours. Or if you want to do VIP for any of our future tours, it really helps us out. And that's what pays for us to be able to have all of this. So thank you so much for watching and we'll see you next time.
